The much awaited micro car from Tata is finally here. As the media waited with baited breath and almost caused a stampede while getting into the launch arena at the Auto Expo in Delhi, Mr. Ratan Tata fulfilled his promise to the people of India by launching the 'Nano' the already famous Rs. 1 lakh peoples car. The 'Nano' is an appropriate name for the smallest, lightest automobile on Indian roads or roads across the world for that matter. The first thing that strikes you about the 'Nano' is that it is not a bad looking ugly boxy hatch but for the price it’s quite proportionate and well styled. Its mono box design might seem boxy but generates a lot of interior space which can seat four adults comfortably. It has four doors, is 3.1 metres long and 1.5 metres wide with a height of 1.6 metres. The 'Nano' has an all aluminum two cylinder 623cc (33bhp) petrol engine mated with a four speed manual gearbox. Company officials during the press conference confirmed that a diesel engine is also on the cards but the timeframe hasn’t been chalked out yet. The Nano has its engine at the rear and is a rear wheel drive car. That makes it sound like a small fun hatch to run around town in.Full Story
